#1 Don't panic and start fixing things that aren't broken and breaking things that are good. This problem is not uncommon and happens for a variety of reasons including a lower battery voltage after the car has been in the shop for a while, or a simple burned out brake light.

I had the steering angle sensor code on my '04, and it simply reset and tested good the next time I took it out.

hehe, thanks. No Panic here. I'm pretty confident that a proper alignment will solve the ABS / PSM thing.

So, on to the CEL, but I'll start another thread.
